Denise Anticipates Criticism

Denise Richards, mother to daughters Sam and Lola, recently stated that her new reality show is doomed for criticism whether or not she uses her kids:

“If I have my kids on my show, I’m exploiting them,” she tells Redbook. “If I don’t, people will think I’m not a hands-on mom.” [However, she goes on to say that they are an integral part of her life and] “that’s why it’s very important to me that the girls are part of it.”
